Enhanced Joint Heart and Respiratory Rates Extraction from Functional Near-infrared Spectroscopy Signals Using Cumulative Curve Fitting Approximation.
Article in Journal of medical signals and sensors, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a valuable neuroimaging tool that captures cerebral hemodynamic during various brain tasks. However, fNIRS data usually suffer physiological artifacts. As a matter of fact, these physiological artifacts are rich in valuable physiological information. Methods: Leveraging this, our study presents a novel algorithm for extracting heart and respiratory rates (RRs) from fNIRS signals using a nonstationary, nonlinear filtering approach called cumulative curve fitting approximation. To enhance the accuracy of heart peak localization, a novel real-time method based on polynomial fitting was implemented, addressing the limitations of the 10 Hz temporal resolution in fNIRS. Simultaneous recordings of fNIRS, electrocardiogram (ECG), and respiration using a chest band strain gauge sensor were obtained from 15 subjects during a respiration task. Two-thirds of the subjects' data were used for the training procedure, employing a 5-fold cross-validation approach, while the remaining subjects were completely unseen and reserved for final testing. Results: The results demonstrated a strong correlation ( Conclusion: This study highlights fNIRS as a powerful tool for noninvasive extraction of heart and RRs alongside brain signals. The findings pave the way for developing lightweight, cost-effective wearable devices that can simultaneously monitor hemodynamic, heart, and respiratory activity, enhancing comfort and portability for health monitoring applications.
